I appreciate how she creates a space for me to process overwhelming moments, it helps me reset and show up better in my life. Her acceptance, humor, and insight have truly made such a difference in my growth."

"Brenda is incredibly easy to talk to and genuinely personable. She has guided me through managing my generalized anxiety disorder by offering a variety of approaches, helping me discover what works best for me. I’ve truly valued every single therapy session with her. "

"Meeting Brenda felt like stumbling across a cavern full of diamonds. I have always felt seen and never judged because she creates a space that is welcoming and healing. I have grown so much in the last four years and wouldn’t have been able to do it without her help. So much of the person I am today has been because of our sessions. I've learned to advocate for myself in situations where I previously had not and learned how to deal with my emotions in a healthy way."

"Brenda is a wonderful therapist who helped me make real progress with my trauma and anxiety through EMDR. Her patience, understanding, and genuine care made me look forward to therapy for the first time. The calming, beautiful atmosphere of her office made every session feel safe and comforting. I’m truly grateful and would wholeheartedly recommend Elements of Hope and Healing."

I.E.

"When I first met Brenda, I was in a difficult place mentally experiencing frequent panic attacks, struggles to focus, and deeply depressed. My ex-husband’s treatment and repeated attempts with multiple counselors had left me exhausted and discouraged. Brenda’s support, wisdom, and guidance has helped me improve my mental and emotional state, while drawing me closer to God. Her presence in my life has been life-changing. Today, I find joy almost every day, respond to challenges with more peace than before, and have been able to lower my anxiety medication."

"EMDR therapy has made so many positive changes in both mine and my other family members lives. It is honestly an amazing form of therapy that I recommend to ANYONE who has suffered any kind of trauma in their life. Brenda is the kind of person that makes you instantly feel comfortable and she’s great at what she does."

J.R.

"I love going to therapy with Brenda. It is lots of fun and we play games. EMDR therapy helped me to not be afraid of doing things like pageants, cheerleading and soccer. Brenda helped me so that I can do all the things I love to do without being scared."

"Neurofeedback was new to us. Betsy was referred as a possible solution for some learning issues and separation anxiety with my daughter. Betsy did a wonderful job of educating us on how it works and answering all our questions. My daughter absolutely loves going to therapy and never wants to miss a session. It wasn’t overnight, but in a relatively short time we were seeing some major improvements!"

"Three of our daughters have attended Elements of Hope and Healing. With our younger children we took a much more proactive approach by normalizing therapy as part of self growth & development. Equipping them with tools to cope with the daily stressors of life as they grow and the inevitable trauma that we will endure at some point no matter how big or small it is. Our kids beg to go see Brenda or Betsy, it’s a highlight of their week."

 

Betsy has been an incredibly safe and peaceful person to journey with. Her room is cozy and she holds a sweet presence. While during Neurofeedback I feel like I am on a great muscle relaxer and my whole system feels calm and restful. I've already noticed a change in my anxiety and mental space. So grateful and looking forward to continued therapy and healing as I process with her.
